80'z Performance 80 El Camino build aka "Dirty Little Secret"

Well we thought we were going to be able to clean up the original wiring harness but after further review this harness has been patched together one too many times. Ron Francis Xpress to the rescue!!

Late night wrenching - preparing her for the engine/transmission pull.

Well the frame is ready to got to powder coat. Going to load it up on the trailer tomorrow and drop it off first thing Monday morning to get coated. Should have it back within 10-15 business days. In the meantime we are going to clean up the undercarriage and try to figure out a color for the car.

Frame is Locked and Loaded. Dropping it off at Arizona Powder Coat in the morning where she will be for the next 2.5-3 weeks. Should be picking her up when we get back from SEMA.
